Do bathrooms fans have to sound like a wind tunnel to get the job done? The truth is, noisy bathroom exhaust fans lose much of their effectiveness, simply because people don't want to use them. So, odor, moisture, mold and mildew build up. Even the most elegant bathrooms become unattractive, and may suffer long-term damage.

The do-it-yourself kit allows a homeowner to use their existing exhaust fan grille and housing as the inlet for your new system. That means the ceiling is left undisturbed so there's no need to worry about patching drywall.

Fantech bathroom exhaust fans are designed to operate quietly and effectively, so people actually use them. Yet their affordability means they're right for every bathroom-from simple to luxurious.

You'll find Fantech bathroom exhaust fans specified on the blueprints of top architects and designers.

INSTALLATION TIPS - Locate vent as close as possible bath fixtures (toilet, showers, and hot tubs - Fantech recommends the use of insulated flexible duct for the exhaust system - Place at least 8 feet of duct between intake grill and fan (insulated flexible duct allows sound from the fan to dissapate gradually so that it can not be heard in the bathroom)

Watched and followed the installation video and it was straight forward. I purchased 4" band clamps as the video recommends. I drilled pilot holes for mounting the fan to the mount before climbing up into the attic. I expected foil tape, not the cheap duct tape supplied. Not as powerful as I expected but very quiet.

This fan is wonderful. It installed in about two hours including old fan removal. It is quiet, quiet, quiet! I recommend obtaining a couple of 4 inch hose clamps as the included duct tape leaves a lot to be desired. ( Did not work.)

Kit was complete and easy to install, quiet (mounted on rafter). Didn't have to use hose reducers. Intructions suggest to drill hole if mounted horizontally to drain any condensation. Kit should include small/simple nipple.

Easy retrofit IF the house was built correctly. Should have taken about 2 hours. Due to substandard work by builder, took additional 3 hours repairing shoddy workmanship. The lesson... Check out the original workmanship thoroughly during the planning stage.
